  • Paragliding Disaster: Sucked Towards the Stratosphere (Repeat)

    Paragliding Disaster: Sucked Towards the Stratosphere (Repeat)
    Dec 26 2024
    This week, we delve into the Real Survival Stories archive. In case you missed them the first time around, there are over 70 stories in the back catalogue available to listen to now. We’ll be back as normal, every week, after a short festive break. A picturesque paragliding flight becomes a terrifying nightmare when a massive storm rolls in. Sucked into the clouds, Ewa Wiśnierska is pelted by hailstones the size of oranges. With lightning crackling all around her, she is sent hurtling upwards - still clinging to her parachute. Soon, she’ll be higher than Everest and nearing the cruising altitude of a jumbo jet. Covered in ice, approaching the edge of the breathable atmosphere… how on earth does she make it down in one piece? A Noiser production, written by Sarah Ward.

First Person Accounts FTW

The addition of first person accounts really helps set this series apart! The emotion and context of precisely what was being experienced suck you in fully captivating and inserting the listener into the event. Excellent!

Very entertaining

These are stories of remarkable endurance and in many instances, the will to live. I like the short story format and look forward to new episodes.
